==Costume appearance==
The appearance of alternate costumes varies from a simple change in hue (e.g [[Yoshi]], [[Mr. Game & Watch]]) to the incorporation of patterns, pictures and text ([[Snake]], [[Ness]], [[R.O.B]]), to the addition of accessories, sometimes animated, as is the case with Jigglypuff's waving green ribbon in ''[[Melee]]''. Some characters have costumes that are derived from earlier or alternate renderings of themselves, such as Mario's "Jumpman" blue, and his "Fire Mario" white and Luigi's "NES" white and his "Fire Luigi" white, Peach's "NES" white, Bowser's "International Super Mario Bros. cover" blue, Donkey Kong's "NES" red, ''Brawl'' Samus' "Fusion Suit" blue, Captain Falcon's "SNES" blue, various commercial versions of R.O.B, [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]]'s "shiny Pokémon" green, Captain Falcon's "F-Zero X Japanese commercial" black, and Zero Suit Samus' "Super Metroid Japanese commercial" black. Some costumes make references to other characters who may or may not appear in Smash games but only appear in other Nintendo games, such as [[Peach]]'s "Daisy" palette swap, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]'s "[[Wario]]" and "[[Waluigi]]" costumes, [[Lucas]]' "Claus" outfit, [[Captain Falcon]]'s "Blood Falcon" outfit, [[Diddy Kong]]'s "Dixie Kong" outfit, and Jigglypuff's green hat in ''Brawl'', which refers to Kirby's sleep hat. A small number of costumes make references to other costumes from elsewhere in the Smash universe, such as ''Brawl'' Pikachu's blue "Pichu goggles", ''Melee'' Jigglypuff's blue "SSB bow", R.O.B's "R.O.B Launcher" green, and Wario's "Mario" costume. Other costumes appear to be created primarily for the purpose of team battles, (Pichu's red, Diddy Kong's green), or else are invented simply for the sake of fun and variety (Ice Climbers' white, Bowser's black, Luigi's orange).

In online Brawls and Team Battles, if two characters shared the same palette swap, the second player would have a lighter tint in their appearance. A third player uses a darker tint, and in ''Melee'', a fourth is completely black, such as the characters in [[Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides]]. Data suggests that a fifth player would be completely gray, if possible.
